  1. Overview
  2. Examples

Floating PIKs Bad (Affirmative)

Floating plan inclusive kritiks are a voter

  1. Aff Ground – PIKs steal the aff and skew the 1AR due neg shiftiness and mooting the 1AC – lack of a stable PIK explanation and extreme aff inclusion makes solvency deficits impossible and makes the neg structural ahead
  2. Education – encourages vague plans to avoid PICs – that undermines specificity of args and causes stale debates
  3. Infinitely regressive – there always can be some miniscule problem with the plan – causes debate on comma placement, word choice, and grammar – crowds out substance and predictability

Floating PIKs Good (Negative)
